Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This zinc yellow-chromate-plated steel rivet nut delivers exceptional engineering value in metal fabrication and assembly operations. The ribbed body design creates multiple bearing surfaces that distribute load evenly, significantly reducing the risk of pull-out in thin sheet metal applications. The 8-32 UNC coarse threads with Class 2B fit provide reliable fastening while accommodating minor misalignments during installation. The closed end construction makes it ideal for applications requiring sealed fastening points, preventing moisture and debris accumulation in automotive, electronics enclosure, and machinery assemblies. Engineered specifically for metal thicknesses from 0.080" to 0.130", this fastener solves critical challenges in vibration-prone environments where traditional nuts may loosen over time.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This high-performance rivet nut features precise UNC coarse threads (8-32) with Class 2B thread fit ensuring consistent engagement and reliable performance. The fastener maintains dimensional accuracy with 0.265" body diameter and 0.39" flange diameter for optimal load distribution. Manufacturing compliance includes full adherence to REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations and RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) directives, confirming environmental responsibility and material safety. Installation specifications include 0.58" installed length and recommended 17/64" (0.2656") drill bit for proper hole preparation in metal substrates.
